  • Abstract
    This presentation addresses two questions: what kinds of teaching innovations are available on NEEDS; and how do faculty adapt or adopt courseware developed by others for their own use in the classroom? The first question is addressed by a short demonstration of how NEEDS works and precedes the discussion of how the innovations have been used in the classroom. The response to the second question is based on the results of a case study of faculty use of the Premier Courseware of 1997.
